Ingredients and Nutritional Benefits of Matcha Glow Energy Bites

🌾 Rolled Oats

Oats are a complex carbohydrate rich in beta-glucan, a soluble fiber that helps stabilize blood sugar, keep you full longer, and support gut health. The slow-release carbs give you sustained energy — perfect for workouts or long days.

🥄 Almond Butter

A source of healthy fats, fiber, and a good dose of plant-based protein. Almonds are rich in vitamin E, which supports skin health, and magnesium, which helps with muscle recovery and stress reduction.

🍵 Ceremonial Matcha

The star of the show! Matcha is a powdered green tea loaded with antioxidants, particularly EGCG, which helps fight inflammation, support metabolism, and protect against oxidative stress. Matcha also contains L-theanine, which promotes calm, focused energy without the crash. Be sure to purchase ceremonial matcha.

🌿 Maca Powder

A Peruvian adaptogen known for supporting hormone balance, libido, and energy levels. Maca helps stabilize mood, support the endocrine system, and may even help with muscle endurance and recovery.

🍯 Maple Syrup

A natural sweetener that contains trace minerals like manganese and zinc. It gives just enough sweetness without spiking blood sugar the way refined sugars do.

🧂 Sea Salt

A pinch enhances flavor and supports electrolyte balance, which is especially helpful post-sweat or during long afternoons.

🍫 Optional Add-ins

Dark chocolate chips for mood and antioxidants
Chia seeds for omega-3s and fiber
Shredded coconut for texture and medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs)

How These Matcha Glow Energy Bites Support Your Goals

Boosts Energy Naturally

With a combination of slow-digesting carbs, fats, and matcha, these bites provide sustained energy and mental clarity—without caffeine jitters or sugar crashes.

Supports Muscle Recovery and Tone

The mix of plant-based protein, maca, and healthy carbs makes these a great pre- or post-workout snack. They support muscle recovery, reduce inflammation, and fuel endurance.

Balances Hormones

Maca is known for its ability to support the endocrine system, particularly for women navigating PMS, perimenopause, or stress-related hormone imbalances.

Promotes Glowing Skin

Matcha and oats reduce inflammation, while almond butter supplies vitamin E for skin repair and radiance. Together, they help build a healthy glow from the inside out.

Aids in Weight Management

With high fiber and satisfying fats, these bites help reduce cravings and prevent energy dips that lead to overeating or snacking on less nutritious foods.
